Flash CS6 and iOS Publishing

Hi. Has anyone had any experience with iOS publishing using Cs6? What are the difficulties in this? Anything you can explain would be nice as i am a student and need to think before i spend $100 on a license. Thank you.

Hi
You said:"How can I verify the correctness of the entitlements ? Entitlements work well in development mode and I'm assuming no change is required ?"
Are you providing "development" environment like this:
<key>aps-environment</key>
<string>development</string>
If yes then change it to :
<key>aps-environment</key>
<string>production</string>
I hope this helps!

Flash CS6 does not publish for iOS with ANE included

Hi,
I'm creating a game to run on iOS devices and one of the game requirement is for the device to vibrate on some action.
I added the Vibration.ane file (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/native-extensions-for-air/extensions/vibration.html) into the library path in Flash CS6 and also added the extension ID to the XML file. However when I publish the Flash file to check on device, I only keep seeing the "Publishing" loader bar. I've even waited for over 15 mins for it to complete. I get no error, nor does the PC hang, but I can't seem to publish my .app file for device testing.
Also I assume we can't test Vibration functionality with the Simulator that opens during desktop testing. I get the error "The content cannot be loaded because there was a problem loading an extension: Error: Requested extension com.adobe.Vibration is not supported for Windows-x86."
Would appreciate help.
Thanks,
Mariam

IPA is ok at the CS6 flash' standard 3.2 export, just tried the new AIR 3.3 also - no problems. I just included the Gyro ANE file, not the SWC
However, because the adl still does not want to preview this thing, development/testing the Gyro stuff is difficult...
I discovered the accelerometer is something different however. Adobe's little remote control thingy on which you can simulate phone position and multitouch emulates the accelerometer, not the Gyro. The Gyro extension taps in to a piece of hardware which really displays the position of the device, not the movement it's been receiving.
Maybe obvious but I thought I'd post this little find, after a day of testing and exporting, syncing, ... this was a tiresome experience...
After all this I can advise to sync the .ipa's with xcode though, instead of iTunes. This works MUCH faster (if you're on mac). Just run xcode, pull up the 'organizer window', select your device and go to the subbranch ' applications'. There you can add the .ipa by clicking on the '+' button

Flash CS6 crashes when publishing fla`s with big libraries

Hi guys,
I am currently working with Flash CS6 and i noted that the bigger the libraries in my fla`s get the more likely flash will crash when i try to publish these fla`s. It already has gotten to a point where all the crashes, and then trying again to publish, has taken up a considerable amount of my time. But the thing is the publishing does not alway result in a crash, its more like 80% of the time it crashes. Also what i do once a file has crashed, i open it again and then just open and close some folders in the library, then safe and then try to publish again. After doing this 4 - 5 times publishing suddenly works again, but also just 4 - 5 times until it crashes again and i have to do it all over again.
So again, this only seems to happen with fla`s with big libraries. Is ther something i can do about this?

It's been my experience that Flash doesn't much like a few things in particular. One is large vector files with a lot of points; in other words stuff brought in from Illustrator or trace bitmapped from within the program so you might try reducing the amount of points in your art if you'r working with imported art. Flash seems to work best when all art has been created within the program. If you've converted it to vector via the Trace Bitmap or Illustrator's Live Trace it doesn't like that either. It also tends to bog down with high resolution bitmaps, especially with many layers (which greatly add to the file size) so you might try to flatten some of the art to make it more managable. In general, maybe see if you can reduce whatever file sizes you can in your project before you import them. I typically have some pretty big libraries and Flash doesn't crash so much for me so changing your workflow a bit might be useful. IF it's code that's crashing the render, that I can't help you with, but there's some pretty knowledgable people on this board who might be able to help in that regard.

Flash CS6 and CC on the same computer?

Can I run Flash CS6 and CC on the same computer? I need inverse kinematics now only in CS6 but my computer in from my university and will shortly be converted over to FlashCC but I need many of the dropped old feratures. I'm seriously in trouble as I have a large animation I have been working onwith my students for months and very soon the workflow will come to a grinding stop. It's already bad as the lab computers have already moved over to CC. My laptop is now my only worrking option along with the students who have a copy of CS6. The ones who moved over to CC can no longer work on the project. Thanks Adobe!

Hi Hugzelpod,
You can run Flash CS6 and Flash CC on the same computer.
Thanks,

Just bought an .OTF font for Flash CS6 and it's not showing up in the list.

Any reason why? It shows up in Illustrator and Photoshop just fine.

If you have never synced an audiobook yet, you have to connect your ipad and go to the books tab.
Scroll down past the regular books and there will be where you sync your audiobooks.
Then they will show up on the music app under "other"

Flash cs6 native ane publish problem

hi! i was very lucky to download and test flash cs6, but there are directly problems with the publish function
after i add an ane file, i get this error:
DVFreeThread - CFMachPortCreateWithPort hack = 0x18fe90, fPowerNotifyPort= 0x19d5a0
DVFreeThread - CFMachPortCreateWithPort hack = 0x1a96b0, fPowerNotifyPort= 0x18c5e0
DVFreeThread - CFMachPortCreateWithPort hack = 0x19d0a0, fPowerNotifyPort= 0x19d5a0
invalid profile specified 'Application does not support current profile'
if i'm testing another ane file, i get this error:
DVFreeThread - CFMachPortCreateWithPort hack = 0x32a460, fPowerNotifyPort= 0x319fc0
DVFreeThread - CFMachPortCreateWithPort hack = 0x1454b0, fPowerNotifyPort= 0x12c400
The content cannot be loaded because there was a problem loading an extension: Error: Requested extension com.wolfknock.idialog is not supported for MacOS-x86.
both ane files was supported on the cs5.5 version. so should cs6 not be besser than 5.5?
i'm using the default deliverd air3.2 and mac lion..
maybe it's because the new option ios sdk 5.1 (checkbox?)

Unfortunately it's a compile time error not a runtime error. If it was runtime then yes you could certainly check the typical isSupported() method most ANEs have. Although you need to compile to get to that point and the compiler is throwing the error.
Flash CS5.5 didn't have a problem because you needed to package with ADT command line to include a native extension as it had no idea what it was so it makes sense you could test using it. Flash Builder users (which has had ANE support) have had to deal with keeping ANEs from being packaged to avoid the same compiler errors you're getting. We're very used to the PITA that it is
All an ANE developer needs to do is provide an implementation for a particular platform, even if it doesn't work, and you won't get errors. During creating the static library for the ANE the iOS developer could specify support for it in the build. Unfortunately the ANE you're using doesn't have that. It's telling Flash it only works on a device.

Flash CS6 professional iOS Player Settings will not open.

Please Help.
I am unable to open the Player Settings pane for iOS.
I can get to the Player Settings for Android and everything else, but if I try to open player settings for iOS, at first nothing happens and then after a while Flash IDE crashes.
It was working at one point yesterday. I was resolving an issue I had related to provisioning profiles. And then all of a sudden I am unable to get to this panel.
I have run uninstall, and CC cleaner and removed all things Adobe from my machine and did a fresh reinstall of Creative Suite 6 Design and Web Premium.
I started a brand new project and still, no Player Settings pane for iOS.
Please Help!

Flash CS6 and Flash Pro CC questions

I have the Adobe Creative Suite CS6, I just seen that Flash has a new version "Flash Pro CC" I need to know the following.
WIll Flash Pro be available on its own? Or is there a CS7 Creative Suite coming?
Main differences in Flash Pro CC and Adobe Edge Animate?
I do not see any of this info available as my business seems to be pointing to more app creation and HTML5 animation in the future. Adobe Edge is a good tool but there is no tool that can stand beside Flash when it comes to animating and I would hope that in some way shape or form, masks and some other features which were avaialble ONLY in Flash are now somehow integrated in Flash Pro?
Any info appreciated.
thx
RD

"edge is stictly an html animation tool. flash pro is much more, but even in the realm of html publishing, i'm not sure there's anything that edge can do that flash pro cannot. (there might be, i just don't know.)"
This is a very good point as anyone who knows Flash would agree that it would be a godsend if Flash Pro CC would allow the user to create Flash based animations and then export to HTML5 while preserving the tools in Flash like masking which is not available in Edge. Having worked in Edge plenty of times it still requires alot of coding when you are doing button states and the overall nightmare of audio not being totally perfected to work in HTML 5 without 3rd party javascript libraries makes it difficult.
So, Flash Pro CC is ONLY available in Creative Cloud for a subscription, correct?
I have the new Lynda.com overview of Flash Pro CC and will have a look but in the meantime you are a Flash god and have helped me numerous times, many thanks !!!!

Flash CS6 and the old Packager for iPhone?

Hi,
I was wondering: now that it's possible to select an Air SDK version in Flash CS6, would it also be possible to use Flash CS6 with the old 'packager for iPhone' that came with Flash CS5?
I know, I know, I should get rid of that old thing, but reality is that I used packager for iPhone to create one of my first apps and now I can't update to a newer version of Air. Apple doesn't allow that, because existing users wouldn't be able to update anymore.
It would be great if CS6 can work with the old Packager for iPhone.
Does anyone know the answer to this?

Too bad... I was hoping to kick my old CS5 installation out of the window...

Flash Pro CS6 and IOS AIR

When publishing a SWF using IOS AIr it ask for a certificate must be selected. What does this mean?
Thanks,
Joe

it means you must have a certificate and a provisioning profile if you want to publish an app to install on an iDevice. go to https://developer.apple.com/ and read.
if you're just goofing and you want to install on a jail-broken device, you can probably find a certificate and provisioning profile that lets you install without paying apple

Correct Flash CS6 iOS publish settings for iPhone?

My programmer and I are trying to publish an iOS app for iPhone from Flash cs6 and are being rejected because "Your app did not run at iPhone resolution and/or 2x iPhone 3GS resolution when reviewed on iPad. The contents of your app are not displayed within the confines of the screen."
In Flash CS6 iOS publish settings there is an option to export for iPad Only, iPhone Only, and for iPad and iPhone. iTunes Connect is sending us a screenshot that shows what we see when we publish a development IPA file using the iPad and iPhone setting. But the IPA file we submitted to them was published using the iPhone Only settings which when viewed on the iPad2 shows up inside the little iPhone 1X frame and can be expanded to 2X as well. I believe this is what they are saying is not happening when they do the same.
Has anyone else who uses Flash had this issue? If so what stage size and what publish settings should be used when trying to create an iPhone only app?
Thanks in advance, Patrick

iPhone only app should be published with stage size:
640x960 for portrait view
960x640 for landscape view
... if the app are going to be fullscreen.

Problem installing Adhoc version to iPhone and iPad - Development Environment Is - Adobe Flash CS6

Hi,
I have successfully submitted 2 versions of the application. There are 2 different versions for iPad and iPhone separately. These were developed using Adobe Flash CS6 and AIR SDK - 4.0.0.1628. The category is Lifestyle and app is free.
Now I wanted to add new feature of push notification to both iPad and iPhone versions. I have successfully tested the development version with development profiles and certificates over iPad and iPhone.
Before submitting the app to Appstore I was trying to test the Adhoc version with production environment and profiles but application was not installing to the iPad, it is the same iPad that is used for development. But after searching forums and other help Adhoc version was not installed to iPad the solutions that were tried are as under:
1. Create new certificates and profile for Adhoc
2. Change Entitlement tags in Application xml file
3. Remove existing profiles from iPad to avoid error.
4. Update OS version of iPad to 8.1
But once I try to last point - [4] even development version is not installing. Because there are no provision profiles installed.
Can you please help/guide me how to fix it? I need to test both development and Adhoc versions on the iPad and iPhone.
Some more information -->>
// Development Entitlement key - it is working fine with development environment
<Entitlements><![CDATA[
          <key>aps-environment</key>
            <string>production</string>
        ]]></Entitlements>
//Adhoc Entitlement key - it is not working application does not gets installed, icon turns dark and keeps saying installing once you hit the App icon. I am trying to install app using iTunes, after publishsing in Flash CS6 for Adhoc.
<Entitlements><![CDATA[

       ]]></Entitlements>
// If I try installing using install application to connected device after publishing then the error is:
Device Error: Please check if there is enough space on the device.
But I have enough space on iPhone that I am testing. Remember development version is installing successfully and working fine for notifications.
Thanks

Flash CS6 publishing issue using accordion plug-in

I apologize if I have limited info on this issue. i'm providing remote support and my user is only providing limited intel...
I have a user running Flash CS6 and has designed a site using the accordion plug-in with XML. When she publishes it from her Mac (10.6.8) then views it the SWF doesn't play nicely. The buttons function for a short period then freeze. She had another user open and publish from a PC using CS5 it works fine. They've compared the code between the 2 and there are supposedly no differences. She has this problem when publishing from CS4 as well (again, on Mac, 10.6.8). To add to the confusion, I've been sent the URL to both her version published from the Mac, supposedly not working correctly, and the version published from the PC. I've tested them both in Chrome, Safari, and Firefox on my Mac, and Chrome, Firefox, and IE on my PC and I'm not seeing any issues.
Anyone have any ideas?

Most accordion components I know need an additional xml file to fill them up with content.
This must be loaded properly into the swf, to make it show sth.
if you only have a swf file to test, its likely that the xml was left out.

Publish flash cs6 quiz to html 5

hi..i create one quiz in flash cs6 and i wnat to publish it for html 5. Please provide me some solution for the same.. thanks!

Hi,
You can open your existing fla's in the latest Flash CC release and convert them into a Canvas fla's and publish. If you have timeline frame scripts(AS2/AS3) then it will be commented and available for reference.
You may want to refer to Flash Professional Help | Creating and publishing an HTML5 Canvas document for more details.
Thanks!
